Surface skimmer on a Biomaster

[Mattant1984]

Has anyone added a surface skimmer to the inlet pipe on an Oase Biomaster?

Did it do a good job and are there any recommendations?

I think probably most have mate. As for which one, take your pick.
You can buy stainless steel pipes, there was a thread recently on this.
Buy glass, they don’t have to cost lots, cheap one work just as good.
Or you can go plastic with aquario, this has a more minimal looking skimmer on the outflow.

@seedoubleyou Thanks mate, I think I'll go black plastic to blend in with the background. Are they noisey when running??

I’m not aware of any black plastic ones other than the ones that come with the filter.

Clear plastic or glass do go pretty clear in the water. Plenty of examples online and in the journals section.

Nope, they don’t make any noise unless there’s an issue or they become blocked etc……

Please see the below link for an example of what’s out there for sale via our forum sponsors.
